There are a number of wines from outside Italy that can go well with pasta but somehow Italian and Sicilian wines just work that little bit better when it comes to finding the perfect partner to this classic dish which comes in so many different forms.

After all, these wines are meant to go with food, and what more perfect choice than pasta?

The wines for pasta mixed case offer includes three bottles of each of the following four wines and is priced at £79 (normal price £92.67).

(Due to a production error, some of the details of the wine offer in this week's issue of The Oxford Times were incorrect. We apologise for the errors.)

 

Catarratto Il Meridione 2012

Catarratto is a grape variety from Sicily which produces fragrant aromas of peaches and limes along with crisp citrus fruit flavours that are a great match for seafood pasta dishes.

Miopasso Fiano 2011

This excellent wine made from the Fiano grape variety has subtle flavours of pears, apple blossom and a subtle touch of honey and is a perfect match with fish dishes and tuna pasta.

Nero d’Avola Il Meridione 2011

This wine’s soft rich red berry fruit make it a real success with meatballs as well as semi spicy pasta and parmesan dishes.

Volpetto Chianti 2011

Supple and smooth wine with complex flavours of black cherries, violets and red berry fruit – a great match with many pasta dishes from vegetables to Bolognese.
